DRIFTING TO CORRUPT GOVERN
MENT.

Save when overthrow by exter-
nal forces, Of which there is in this
country absolutely no danger, popu-
lar government does not go down
with a crash. 1t is slowly under
mined. silently transformed-the
spirit, the strength, the essence, is
eaten out of it while its forms re-
main. and on the surface all
things appear to so on as before,
until at last the crash comes and the
hollow shell is broken. 1t was cen
turtles after Cesar ere the masters
of the Roman world pretended to
rule by any other authority than
that of senates that trembled before
them. The Huns and Vandals who
wrecked Roman palaces, and burn
ed Roman libraries, the invading
hordes of fierce hOrsemen that set
the crescent above the cross in the
East were not the destrOyers of Ro-
man civilization. They were but
the carton birds who descended up
on the carcass from which the life
had already gone.
Eternal vigilance, as Washington
told us, is the price of liberty. 1t
is not in sudden crash or violent
eruption that danger comes to such
a republic as ours. 1t is in the quiet
stealing of power from the many
to the few-in the gradual growth
of conditions inconsistent with a re-
public. How far this has already
gone, and how fast il is even now
going on, anyone who will open his
ewes and look about may see.
What has become of our faith and
our pride in the American republic
when leading journal like the Her
AID can say, "Politics are corrupt
OF course they are. Are they any
purer, though, in Germany, or En-
gland, or France -
And worse is beneath if we make
the comparison. Does the Herald
know of any German city ruled by
a saloon keeper as Boss Buckley
rules San Francisco ? Does it know
of any French city where a govern
inc gang of thieves and murderers
and ballot box suffers could receive
such an Endorsement" as Baltimore
city recently gave to her governing
ring ? Does it know of any great
English city of which it can truth
fully say what ex-Superintendent OF
Police Walling says Of New York in
his recently published book;
The city fNew York is actually ruled
by some twenty thousand office holders
most of whom are taken from and con
trolled by the very worst element In the
community.
Our judiciary and prosecuting officers
are elected and controlled in a great
measure by the very elements they are
called upon TO punish and keep in check.
Although. OfcOurSe, all things are pos
Sible, vet would not count among prob
able contingencies, under the present
system of government in New Ork, the
hanging of any or of its millionaireS,
no matter how unprOvoked or premedi-
tated the murder he might have commit
ted. HENRY GEORGE.
Let the above be read carefully,
and pondered over. Apart from his
theory, of taxing land to its full
rental value, Mr.. George is doing
more than any other man on this
continent to educate the masses in
right direction. In this age OF
lying, deception and sham, such a
man is worth more than his weight

On Tuesday the Senate Com, on

Faulkner and Lucas, and decided
that Faulkner was entitled to the

We predict, the Republican poll
ticians will insist on legislation to
give Congress exclusive control of
all elections OF Senators and MEM
bers of the House. The contention
will he that the States should not
have any control in these elections.
